Default EGR Block Off & Manual Oil Pressure Fitting for LSX

thought I'd share some info

EGR Blockoff for LS1 & Vortec Truck intakes, GM Part#12558346 $20 from you're local GM parts counter.

Oil Pressure adaptor to run manual oil pressure gauge in place of electric.

You remove the stock sender, and break off the plastic. Drill 11/32 hole in it, and tap with 1/8-24 pipe thread tap. Works great.

That oil pressure fitting idea is AWESOME! It's about impossible to find a plug for that. I'm not using the sender, but it leaks oil, must have bumped it and cracked it during install! So now I'm going to take it out drill it tap it and put a plug the size you can easily find in it. Great tip! Thanks!
